A murine sarcoma virus (MSV) was recovered from an (NFS X NS.C58v-1) F1 mouse which developed splenic sarcoma and erythroleukemia 6 months after inoculation with a mink cell focus-inducing murine leukemia virus (MuLV) isolated from an NFS mouse infected with a wild mouse ecotropic MuLV. The MSV, designated NS.C58 MSV-1, induced foci of transformation in mouse and rat fibroblasts, and inoculation of mice of various strains 2 weeks of age or younger resulted in erythroleukemia and sarcomatous lesions in spleen, lymph node, and brain. The MSV provirus was molecularly cloned from a genomic library prepared from transformed non-producer rat cells. The 8.8-kilobase proviral DNA contained a 1.0-kilobase p21 ras coding segment which replaced most of the gp70-encoding portion of an MuLV, most likely the endogenous C58v-1 ecotropic virus. The ras oncogene is closely related to v-Ha-ras by hybridization, expression of p21 protein, and nucleotide sequence. It is nearly identical in sequence to v-bas, the only previously described transduced, activated mouse c-ras. At position 12 in the p21 coding region, arginine is substituted for the naturally occurring glycine present in c-ras. A second MSV isolate is described which is similar to NS.C58 MSV-1 except for a 100- to 200-base-pair deletion in the noncoding region of the ras-containing insert.
